I have written a custom package provider for the pkgutil utility on Solaris 10. Pkgutil replaces pkg-get which is not deprecated. All I did was modify the Blastwave provider to use pkgutil instead of pkg- get. I''ve tried two approaches to get the provider on to the client. First, I created a plugin. I created a module called package to contain the plugin. The only file in

Is it possible to install a solaris streams package with puppet? As some of my machines are not allowed to be a nfs client, I transfer the bunch of packages to these clients with the file type and puppet:// ... If the packages are in filesystem format there can be hundreds of files within large packages. It takes a huge amount of time to transfer all of them. So I''ve changed them into

I am trying to get Puppet to push out a Solaris sudo package that I built, but I keep getting errors. I tested applying the package manually outside of Puppet and it works perfectly, but when I attempt to push it out via Puppet it fails. Puppetmaster Version: 0.23.2 [Ubuntu Linux 7.10 - Puppet built from source] Puppet client version: 0.23.0 [Sun Solaris 10 Zone - Puppet built from source] The

Seems that blastwave is all about pkgutil now. Are there any plans to support this?

Hi folks, I''m about to propose to my current company that we use puppet to manage releases of home grown software. The environment is a mix of Solaris 8/9/10 and RHEL 5&6. I''ve got a handle on how to create recipes to release software into the RHEL environment. The unknown for me is how to manipulate the pkgadd provider to load the locally grown package stream. Can

Greetings, I have a solaris package stored on a puppet server. I''d like to be able to maintain the package on a client system without having to also keep a copy of the package file on the client system. (think lots and lots of packages) Checksums work okay for noticing changes on the fileserver, but it seems that I have to keep a local copy of the file as well. When I rev the package

Hello, on a v20z, we have as DOM 0 a Solaris XEN on snv44 64bits and we have as DOM U a Solaris XEN on snv44 64 bits. We then install a pseudo driver in the Solaris DOM 1 XEN snv44: installation is ok and driver works as expected. But on reboot of DOM 1, the driver is no more there (in modinfo, driver not found). Is there something special to do after a pseudo driver installation in a Solaris

HI! I am trying to configure the samba 2.2.7 binary from sunfreeware ( package for Solaris 7). Is there any way to override the default install location of /usr/local/samba for the lock files? I do not have access to /usr/local as it is NFS mounted and shared by all Solaris 7 boxes. I can pkgadd to a different root path, and I can -s the config file to the install location, but I cannot

Does someone out there have the ability to compile dovecot for solaris 8 x86. I have tried and failed to get it to work. Any format would be acceptable tar or pkgadd. Thanks in advance for any help. Ted

Hi, I created a package for OpenSSH 3.7.1p2 in UNIX (OS: Sun Solaris), the newly created package includes binaries,man pages, libraries and Configuration files. I am planning to install this package in all of my Sun server's (Approximately 200 Server's). We have SSH/OpenSSH older version are already installed and running in all of the sun boxes. I want to install the

Hi, I downloaded 3.0.20 from samba.org, ran makepkg.sh to create samba pkg for Solaris. The install base for the new version locates in /opt/samba and the smbd locates in /etc/samba. I tried to modify the makepkg.sh to put everything under /usr/local/samba as follow: Delete: ==== --localstatedir=/var/lib/samba \ --with-piddir=/var/run \

Hi all Am i doing this right? Is this the right list to post to? If not, a quick lesson in ettiquette for me would not hurt. As I am both just starting to use newsgroups and SSH, I am not entirely familiar with the processes. I have a question about ssh-rand-helper. First an outline: I am currently using the SSH packages for Solaris 2.8 available at sunfreeware.com. The environment is

I have a minor issue with the 'buildpkg.sh' script in the contrib/solaris directory for OpenSSH (3.4p1 in my case) that I'm hoping might be solvable. First off, I'd like to say that I've been quite happy with the script; for interactive installs, it's worked great. My problem is occurring due to my attempts to make it work non-interac- tively, however, within an init

Hi Ben, Just a few things on openssh 3.4p1 Solaris package. 1) Solaris naming convention would be OPENssh for package 2) Need to add the "sed" edit of X11Forwarding for ssh_config also 3) I prefer sym links as default (I suppose thats personal) 4) Need to provide "response" file so that dont need interaction to install!! - I do all install via jumpstart scripts etc.

I''ve built a puppet solaris - package which is distributed via jumpstart at installation time of a solaris 10 machine. It''s postinstallation registers the puppetd into smf and starts puppetd afterwards. Puppetd connects to puppetmasterd, gets ist certificate signed (autosig on) and the configuration stuff. Now the interesting part: a new solaris zone is installed via puppet.

Started the discussion in puppet users mailing list based on recommendation from luke. This discussion is to a follow up regarding bug#1955 "Could not find server puppet" - installation/configuration error". jamtur01''s last recommendation: Rather than renaming things try the certname option (see http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/ConfigurationReference).
